1 Product 2 Ways – Fancy Pants Puffy Stickers

Today we are sharing layouts from Jennifer and Diana, using the Fancy Pants puffy stickers in the July ‘Today is the Day’ kit. The stickers are part of the ‘Life is Beautiful’ collection and have lots of different icons with bright colors. Jennifer created this bold layout below, crafting a garland with the more graphic elements in the collection.

Jennifer had this to say about her process:

“This month I was asked to use the Fancy Pants Puffy Stickers and create something for the 1 Product 2 Ways feature. When I use stickers, or embellishments for that matter, I tend to cluster them around photos or place them somewhere as an after thought. In order to use them differently then I normally do, I decided to add them as a main focal point of my layout. To do this, I created a garland by sticking two dots/hearts together on a piece of thread. I then took the garland and wound it around my photo – front and center – and stapled it in place. After the main portion was in place, I pulled the thread ends out from behind my photo and stuck them in place with additional stickers. While it isn’t exactly earth-shattering use of the stickers, I do like the effect and the fact that they are more of a central part of my photo and layout.”

I love that idea! Especially using the staples, making it quick, with lots of texture.

Diana also used the puffy stickers to embellish her page. This is kind of scrapbook page that needs to be remembered and included in our memory keeping!

Like, lots of scrapbookers, I am enjoying the mixed media backgrounds that are trending these days. However, this kind of page, is the reason I began to scrapbook. Diana used 4 photos and this perfectly appropriate wood grain patterned paper. She basically created a key, matching each photo to a description in the listed journaling below. She used the puffy stickers as bullets for that journaling along with her title and other details. I also appreciate the fact that she used this July kit for creating pages recording events from the Fall season.

As usual, I am inspired to get my embellishments out and get busy!! If you do too, share you pages with us on the Scrapbook Circle of FriendsFB community page.
